ICEGRIPPER was recently approached by FlameOz
the UK's premier fire act who have performed their award-winning brand of dynamic fire dance, acrobatics and circus skills in over 40 countries, with an unusual challenge. They were touring with a Mexican ice show. The challenge was to perform their amazing fire routines on ice! They needed an unobtrusive ice grip product, which whilst giving them the necessary grip on ice, allowed them to also perform dance routines - with fire!
Even after years of very diverse customer enquiries, this was a rather unusual one for the ICEGRIPPER team. Director, Carl Marsh said:
" Whilst we had previously supplied ice grip products to ITV for Dancing on Ice, this enquiry was for a product which did not just provide the gripping action alone and it needed a product which could cope in a very demanding environment, that's why I recommended our ICESPIKE product".
Here's what Dave Knox from FlameOz had to say: "Our brief to ICEGRIPPER was a bit on the unusual side - we are a circus act that needs to perform on an ice rink. FlameOz were asked by "Illusion on Ice" a touring Mexican ice skating spectacular to perform a bespoke choreography on the ice rink. Clearly this presented a particular technical challenge - performing fast paced synchronised dance-style choreography on a surface created for maximum slide! After an online search, I contacted ICEGRIPPER to discuss options available from their extensive catalogue. ICEGRIPPER looked like the right retailer for us. The website was clearly laid out with loads of information. I could tell that a conversation with Carl would be fruitful and I wasn't wrong!".
"Carl recommended ICESPIKE as it was flexible (we could apply it where we needed), robust (it is!) and easy to fit to a range of sizes (small girls and big guys). The ICESPIKE were super easy to apply - just screw them into the sole of the shoe. When we needed to make changes in the configuration there was no immediately visible damage to the sole of the shoe (a teeny screw hole/mark). Over a run of 60+ shows, 7 days per week for 4 solid weeks we had a total of only two ICESPIKE's come out of the shoes. Not a bad failure rate at all bearing in mind we are pirouetting, twisting, running, turning etc… I can't comment on their use for running, but WE found them to be an excellent product in a very demanding ice dance environment. The feedback from the team in Mexico is fantastic – we will be ordering more ICESPIKE's from ICEGRIPPER, thanks Carl!"
www.FlameOz.com is the UK's premier fire act who have performed their award-winning brand of dynamic fire dance, acrobatics and circus skills in over 40 countries to more than 1000 audiences.

Actor and comedian Bill Cosby arrested
Tom Hinde
Thursday, December 31, 2015
Actor and comedian Bill Cosby has been arrested and charged with sexual misconduct. The 78-year-old comedian was arrested Wednesday in Elkins Park, Pa. He is charged with a decade-old sexual assault related to an incident at his suburban Philadelphia home in 2004. He has faced accusations from dozens of women over the past few years. He had no comment as he was released on $1 million bail. The decision to prosecute came just days before Pennsylvania's 12-year statute of limitations for bringing charges was set to expire.

After missing multiple practices because of the flu, Megan Walker was out of sorts.
The UConn freshman was unable to play in two games while she recovered. She was weak from the flu, for sure, but she also struggled to regain her endurance.
On Sunday, coach Geno Auriemma approached her at halftime to ask if she was prepared to play. Walker didn't hesitate.
"She said, 'I'm good to go,' " Auriemma said after UConn's 97-49 win over Memphis
Walker converted 5 of 6 shots for 12 points in 13 minutes. She also had four rebounds and was active around the basket, scoring in the paint.
It was an encouraging performance from the player who was the No. 1 high school...

Douglas Scott has definitley left his mark in the performance art arena, and continues to do so through Full Radius Dance. Full Radius Dance offers outreach programs, performances, masterclasses and workshops for all to enjoy and experience. Bang! got the chance to pick Scott's brain, which yielded quite enlightened responses. Be sure to catch Touch! at 7 stages theater.
BANG! The arts have always been a great apparatus to connect people while highlighting experiences intrinsic to individuals. How do you think dance, in general, facilitates this transaction?
Douglas Scott I'll answer by providing two quotes from modern dance pioneer Martha Graham: "Nothing is more revealing than movement" and "Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body."We may not share the same language, same culture, same beliefs, but we all move.
BANG! Have the dancers included in the performances had prior dancing experience or does Full Radius Dance insert newcomers to the performance art arena?
Douglas Scott For the dancers without disabilities, each bring a professional level of dance technique, honed from years of study, to the company. Dancers with disabilities have far less - practically none - options for training prior to joining Full Radius Dance. Successful auditionees are those who exhibit good body awareness and, if used, chair control. We do extensive training and rehearsals involving all the dancers, both with and without disabilities. Our longest tenured dancer joined Full Radius Dance in 2004; our two newest dancers joined in August of 2012.
BANG! You have over twenty years of experience with dance companies. What spurred your passion about dance, performance art and dance companies?
Douglas Scott My passion for dance, performance art and dance companies all springs from a deep love of movement. As a child, I was in constant stream of motion, running, climbing trees, using the foot board of my bed as a tightrope, etc. I grew up in a small town in southeastern KY and the formal study of dance was not an option. I discovered dance when I left home for college and haven't looked back since!
BANG! Could you elaborate on the outreach programs? What are the goals for your dancers and the audience?
Douglas Scott We have a deep commitment to education and outreach and are dedicated to bringing a unique artistic experience to schools, senior centers and other under-served groups on a regular basis. This programs are tailored to the particular population and may involve a performance by the company, instruction in physically integrated dance technique and a question and answer period. Our goal is to provide the audience a high quality, unforgettable glimpse into the work of Full Radius Dance.
We also acknowledge that whenever and wherever Full Radius Dance takes the stage, we are making a statement for inclusion and acceptance of persons with disabilities in society. This is never our intent (great art is), but we acknowledge the fact we are art for social change as well.
BANG! Given your extreme passion for the arts, what is your optimum goal for the impact of Full Radius Dance as an art director?
Douglas Scott We want our work to enlighten, excite and create a very personal reaction for the viewer.
BANG! How does physically integrated dance lend itself to different creative options in regards to choreography?
Douglas Scott In numerous ways, probably the most striking is that some of the dancers use wheelchairs as their primary means of locomotion. We sometimes view the wheelchair as an extension of the dancers' bodies; other times, we make the conscious choice that the wheelchair is a prop, as when we remove the wheel, or the dancer slides out the chair and on to the floor.
BANG! Touch examines the science, emotion, and memory synonymous with the sensation, a feeling you miss now that you've stepped down from active performance. How are you going to explore the dichotomy between missing the performance aspect of your life through an actual on stage piece, being that the inspiration is derived from missing that very thing?
Douglas Scott Although the origin of Touch can be found in the emotions surrounding my stepping away from active performance, the end result is not informed by these feelings. This was just a starting point. When I came to the realization I was missing the physical contact of dancing, it made me curious as to why. Why did I miss touching and being touched? Why and how does a body respond to touch? This lead me to create section one, Science of Touch. From there it seemed natural for me to explore how touch can trigger emotion in section two, Emotion of Touch, and in the power that lies with touch in section three, Memory of Touch.
BANG!- Was it difficult to facilitate a performance inspired by a personal revelation you had due to the nature of a collection of other people who haven't necessarily experienced the same thing expressing it?
Douglas Scott No, not at all. My pieces often spring from a deeply personal place which I may or may not share with the artists. It is the journey from original idea to completed dance work in which I'm most interested, in how the creative process shapes and refines the concept.
Expressive and analytical, Douglas and respectively Full Radius Dance deliver an experience guaranteed to move you on a personal level, and on an exalted plane of appreciation for the beauty in life and the talents vested in it.
Touch plays at 7stages in the heart of Little Five Points Friday January 18th at 8pm and Saturday January 19th at 2pm & 8pm. For tickets please visit: www.fullradiusdance.org

Gasoline prices still falling
NORWALK --Average retail gasoline prices in Connecticut have fallen 5.6 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $2.26 per gallon on Sunday, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 1,540 gas outlets in Connecticut. This compares with the national average that has fallen 2.3 cents per gallon in the last week to $2.02 per gallon, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Connecticut during the past week, prices Sunday were 139.3 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 43.8 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 27.1 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 125.8 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.
"Welcome back, $1.99! This is the week that we'll see the return to a national average of $1.99 per gallon -- but motorists shouldn't expect it to last very long. Refineries have been processing less crude oil and thus producing less gasoline, which will contribute to a soft bottoming out of the national average before a small recovery back in the very low $2's," said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst with GasBuddy. "And while this year will still feature far lower prices than last year, we'll be subject to a seasonal lift in gasoline prices as refineries slow production to do maintenance and to make the progressive switch over to cleaner burning summer gasoline. Last year's lift began the second week of February and saw the upward trend last until the beginning of May, during which, the national average saw a rise of 35 cents a gallon. This year we're expecting a similar rise, though the previous few years the rise has averaged 30-65 cents per gallon."
He said disel is dropping as well.
"On the diesel side of things, price drops have continued to outpace drops in gasoline prices. Diesel prices dropped an average 7 cents per gallon in the last week to $2.835/gallon. By the start of February, diesel will fall under $2.80/gal, and by Valentines Day, they'll fall to $2.65/gal, a sweetheart deal for consumers and trucking companies that have seen diesel prices lag behind gasoline prices," DeHaan said.
Some quick gasoline price statistics as of Monday morning:
• Missouri has the lowest state average in the country; at $1.79 today, it is one of 27 states averaging under $2.00/gal.
• There is only one state averaging above $3.00/gal today: Hawaii ($3.27).
• In the lower 48 states, California has the highest average at $2.45, followed by New York at $2.42.
• Every state has a lower average today than the same day last year. Ohio, at $1.89 today, has seen the biggest drop from the same day last year, down $1.40 from its January 26, 2014 average.
• Only one state has an average less than $1.00 lower than last year: Hawaii (76cts lower).
• There are only three states that don't have a single station reporting a price under $2.00 per gallon:
1. Vermont (lowest station reporting at $2.05)
2. Alaska (lowest station reporting at $2.29)
3. Hawaii (lowest station reporting at $2.73)

Once every few weeks, I go home to my parents' house and we have dinner together.
In the last year my relationship with my parents has been better then it's ever been. We don't argue about much anymore, and I actually look forward to seeing them every few weeks.
I've said before that that it's really important to make the distinction between settling and settling down.
Although I grew up with Indian values, the more I've drilled into my own personality with this journey, the more I've realized that I don't identify with Indian values.
I don't even want to raise my own kids with many of these values.
Then she showed me pictures of another cousin's new born baby.
Then she started to tell me about how the people in the Indian community were asking if I was going to be getting married anytime soon.
In fact they'd asked so many times that she and my dad have had to develop a series of smart A#$#$ responses so that people would stop asking.
Some of these responses were funny so, I'll share them below: All of this I think was a not so subtle way to ask "why the hell don't you have a girlfriend yet?
" So instead of arguing which I used to do, I thought to myself "shit that's going to make a great blog post".
Thanks mom In the community I grew up in, we are raised with lots of expectations.

Digital Content
Open Educational Resources
Open Educational Resources (OER) are "teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others. Open Educational Resources include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming videos, tests, software, and any other tools, materials, or techniques used to support access to knowledge," according to the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. With appropriate licensing and an eye for finding materials and judging their quality and appropriateness for individual teachers' classrooms, OER can have a huge impact on student learning. Teachers using OER are able to find free materials appropriately licensed and then mix materials from various sources to fit the needs of their students. In some cases, teachers may wish to add to or alter OER to create a new resource and then "publish" that resource for others to use. This spirit of sharing and improving OER is imbedded throughout the OER-using education community.
There is a spectrum of possibilities of licensing open to educators from public domain to Creative Commons (CC) to all rights reserved.
- Public domain content has no restrictions on modification, sharing, use or reuse. Nor is there any cost. However, authorship and origin of the material may be lost with time, since these do not have to be tied to the content. Likewise, there is no way to track modifications across versions.
- CC has six licenses which grant the content user varying degrees of use and modification rights. The content creator holds the copyright, but hands off varying levels of control over that can be done with the content. A CC license gives the user the ability to track authorship and modifications over time.
- All rights reserved copyright restricts the content user's rights to share, modify, and reuse material. Authorship and versioning over time can be tracked.
Achieve's OER Rubrics and Evaluation Tool
Finding and evaluating resources, OER or other licensed content, can be a daunting task. Some states such as Washington have created a process for evaluating OER. Other states and districts have used a rubric created by Achieve, a nonprofit organization.

I honestly cannot believe how lucky I have been. The day started unwrapping a fox Kigu and a beautiful metallic blue Zatchels saddle bag (which I actually did ask for as Gray told me he was getting desperate and needed help! Sneaky G) My parents have hired a holiday cottage for a week for all of us as our main present - bagsie not sleeping in the room next to the new born! They also treated us to new dressing gowns (bye, bye used to be white skanky old one) and a few little stocking fillers.
My sister and her husband gave me a gift token which I used to buy a beautiful jumper and a heart shaped cake plate. Gray's Auntie bought me a beautiful fur collar but the biggest surprise was yet to come... I had told Gray's family to get me gift vouchers to make it easy on them as I know how hard I am to buy for and instead they all clubbed together and bought me my dream present... a kitchenaid mixer! O-M-Bloody-G!! It's both my Christmas and birthday present from all of them and Gray but is still incredibly generous and the same colour as the one in this wishlist post - see wishlists are worth doing!
A big thank you to Char for my book clutch, Gem for the nail goodies and my secret santa for the cupcake bits - I love them all!
I hope you've all had a fantastic Christmas and have been well and truly spoilt :)

About Writing
1. I've written a book. How do I get it published?
The query process can be a lengthy and sometimes discouraging one. Most publishers don't accept unsolicited manuscripts and you need to get an agent first. My first book was written on commission and so it was assured of publication, but my Telesa book was rejected by many agents and a couple of publishers. If you are considering indie /self publishing, you can read about my experiences and advice here:
*Seven Essentials for Self-Publishing
*So You Want to Publish a Book?
*How Many Books have You Sold?
2. I've written a book…some poetry…a play… Can you please read it?
I regret that I'm not able to read people's unpublished work or critique works in progress etc. I'm crazy busy with children/home/church/work and life in general and it's important that I prioritize my own writing or else the next book wont happen.
3. How do you deal with writer's block?
For me, it helps to remember that writing is not a hobby or a fun pastime for when I'm 'feeling bored'. Writing a novel is work and one must approach it as such. Whatever your personal situation is, allocate a set amount of time each day for writing and then don't allow anything to disrupt that. Likewise, work can be boring, stressful, and something that one dreads. The same goes for writing. There are some chapters/scenes that you will be excited to get on paper and then other days, you will hate the sight of your novel. If you expect to LOVE LOVE LOVE writing every minute you attempt it – then you will be disappointed and quit when it gets tough. I like to work on two projects at a time, preferably books that are quite different from the other. That way, I will spend an hour on one and then work on the other book for an hour.
4. What inspires you?
My children are my greatest source of creative inspiration. Twelve years ago, after the birth of our third child, I decided to quit my teaching job, become a full-time 'stay-at-home' parent and help my husband with his construction company. There were many people who were horrified with my decision. Particularly my female friends pursing their careers. They warned I would 'go brain dead' and suffocate in the domestic sphere, be miserable and more. For me though, the opposite happened. The flexibility of being 'my own boss' allowed me to begin writing in earnest. The 'domestic goddess' sphere has been a creative furnace for me. And children can help you see the magic in everything – when they're not driving you nuts.
5. How has your Samoan culture affected you as a writer, both good and bad?
In the Samoan culture, one is never just an individual. One is part of an extended family and community, as well as an heir to a rich geneaology. There is incredible strength and support in this kinship and connectedness. We always have a family 'aiga' to support us. My life's journey as a daughter, student, teacher, wife, mother and then as a writer has been nurtured continually by this. At the same time, it can be challenging because I worry about how my writing will reflect on my extended family and my community. Subjects like sex, love and romance are not always discussed openly in our culture and to address them in a contemporary fantasy adventure series written for young adults makes me feel like I'm walking on eggshells… I look to the example of Pacific writing legends like Albert Wendt and Sia Figiel who have the courage to write with fierce honesty and I am inspired by their strength.
6. Is there a technical side to your creative process?
There didn't used to be. As a super-stressed out mother, I write everywhere and anywhere that I can, carting my laptop from the bedroom to the kitchen table to the living room sofa. I didn't plan or map out anything when I was writing the first Telesa book and so the final product was a nightmare mess for my editor to deal with. Things like – a teacher having one name on pg 24 and another name on pg 67, tattoos that miraculously moved from one arm to the other as the book progressed…messy. I've had to accept that writing a series requires planning and so I take the time now to talk out ideas with my daughter and together we try to map a plot before I write it. I constantly rewrite my writing, refining it and rewording it. I always read sections out loud so I can hear them and 'see' them. I need to see my scenes come alive like a movie playing – and if they don't flow like a movie – then I need to rewrite them.
7. Does writing "come naturally" to you?
Writing is a breeze. I love doing it. It's crazy exhilarating to create people and chart their stories. BUT revising and rewriting and improving my writing – that's what is hard work. That's what I dread but I have to do it because otherwise everything I write would be rubbish. I have so much to learn. I do a lot of research, I study a lot of other writer's techniques. I read voraciously. When I find a book I like – I ask myself why and identify what can I learn from that author's technique? I watch a lot of movies. I think that writers have a lot to learn from movies and television. Both good and bad. Especially when it comes to writing action and event sequences. Knowing how to make reading flow, what kind of dialogue is realistic and what to do to leave readers hungry for more. After I watch a great movie – I come home on FIRE, just burning to get at my laptop and start writing. An example, the recent Avengers movie. That blew me away. The dialogue in particular was witty, profound and captivating. The portrayal of some of the characters was epic. When I think of a TELESA movie one day? That's the kind of movie I hope it will be.
There are many different kinds of writer and people need to be certain of what kind of writer they are trying to be. I'm not writing to impress and astound with my grasp of imagery and language – no, I'm writing to tell a story. I'm a storyteller. And I'm always hoping and trying to improve .
8. What does your workplace look like?
My writing workplace is any space in my house – usually wherever the children are so I can pretend to be keeping an eye on them. Usually at the dining table in the kitchen. I have my ear phones on with music on full blast so I can ignore the sibling squabbles. Beside me is the requisite Diet Coke and a pack of Eclipse candy.
9. What's it like to be a writer? How did you get started? How do you find time to write and be a parent to so many kids?!
I was a blogger waaaay before I was an author of real books so I blogged a lot about the writer life and challenges. Read about them here:
* Things you should know before you Date (or Heaven forbid, marry) a Writer.
* How Much Attention Should Writers Pay to Bad Reviews?
* A Day in the Life of a (Slightly Demented) Author
* You are Not Famous. You are Not Cool.

About Author Visits and Book Events
10. Can you come speak at our school / Festival / conference ?
I enjoy the opportunity to visit places and speak about any of the following: Writing, Publishing, Education, Pacific Literature, Blogging, Social Media for the Small Business, Womens Empowerment Issues, Recovery and Healing from Sexual Violence/Abuse. I waive my speaking fee for schools. Living in NZ made accepting speaking engagements a lot easier. I now live in Samoa though, so unless your organization is able to fly me to you – I can't accept any invitations. There are book tours planned for whenever a new book is released and so it's possible to combine a visit to your school etc – with one of my trips to your area for a book launch. Please check my Calendar of Upcoming Events for more information about dates. Alternatively, use the Contact page and send me details of your proposed event.
About the Telesa Series
11. I haven't read any of your Telesa books yet. What comes first?
In order, the Telesa Series:
1. Telesa – The Covenant Keeper
1.5 I am Daniel Tahi (Novella from Daniel's point of view.)
12. Will there be a Telesa movie?
There's been some exciting developments in this area. Read about them here: A Telesa Movie.
13. Where did you get the idea for Telesa?
There are many legends and stories whispered in Samoa about 'teine Sa', spirit/demon women who have supernatural powers. They are guardians of various areas in the islands – like rivers, forests, a particular village etc. They curse, bewitch, poison, and kill those who defy their rules and disrespect their lands etc. There is a lot of fear and respect given to these legends and many people believe in their existence. As a child growing up in Samoa, I often questioned my father and other elders about the 'teine Sa', because I wanted to know more about them. Who were they exactly and where did they originate? People did not like my questions and I got very few answers. Mainly because teine Sa are such a taboo topic and also because, few people really know much about them at all. I took that unfulfilled curiousity and used it to dream up the Telesa women in my books. They are nothing much like the original legends as they are my creative interpretation of them.
14. What's it like to create a main character in a Young Adult book series?
It's super exciting, thrilling stuff. You get to draw up this blueprint for a person and then as you write their story, your imagination takes off in all directions as you wonder, why is she this way? Why would she make that choice? What influenced her to act like that? Young adults are such fascinating characters. They are trying to figure out who they are and where they fit. Trying to handle all sorts of emotions and new experiences as they find their place in the world.
15. What do you like most about your line of work?
Being able to do what I love. All day. Every day. (Well, in between trying to be nice to my children.) I like that I don't even need to leave my house – to be transported to a whole other world of mythology intertwined with magical realism and teenage angst.

Endogenous and Exogenous Money
The issue of endogeneity or exogeneity of money is one that runs through the history of monetary theory, with prominent authors appearing to hold views on either side. Narrowly put, those who plug for the exogeneity view take one or all among the cluster of variables – price level, interest rate or real output – as being determined by movements in the stock of money. Those who hold the endogeneity view consider that the stock of money in circulation is determined by one or all of the variables mentioned above. This narrow definition begs several questions. The variables price level (P), interest rate (R), real output (Y) and money stock (M) are all at the macroeconomic level, i.e. in the context of a one-good economy. Some part of the continuing debate can be traced to the view held by various participants in the controversy about whether such a high level of aggregation is appropriate, e.g. is there a rate of interest? Another part of the debate refers to the choice of money stock variable. Is it commodity money (gold), fiat (paper) money, bank deposits or a larger measure of liquidity that is to stand for the money stock? The problem can be dealt with even at a one-good level either in the context of a closed economy or an open economy and either in an equilibrium or a disequilibrium context, static or dynamic, short run or long run. The basic issue is about the direction of causality-money to other variables or other variables to money. But as our understanding of the underlying statistical theory concerning causality and exogeneity has advanced in recent years, it must also be added that participants in the controversy conflate the exogeneity of a variable (especially of money) with its controllability by policy. Strictly speaking one can have exogeneity without any presumption that the variable can be manipulated by policy, for example rainfall. Also once posed in a dynamic context, we should distinguish between weak exogeneity, which allows for feedback from the endogenous to the exogenous variables over time, and strong exogeneity, which does not allow such a feedback (Hendry et al. 1983). Endogeneity or exogeneity are notions that only make sense in the context of a model. Frequently in the past, there has been a failure to specify such a model, which has then allowed the controversy to continue.

The E-2 (Treaty Investor) visa allows an individual to work and reside temporarily in the United States based on investment in a US business. E-2 visas are typically issued for periods of up to 5 years and are renewable indefinitely, but cannot be converted to a Green Card.
Eligibility is based on the following:
Generally, much of the supporting documentation needed for the E 2 nonimmigrant status is included in a letter signed by the company. This letter is drafted by our office according to the specifics of the individual case, and covers both the E 2 essentials as well as the discretionary information which strengthens the application. Information on the size and amount of the investment, the prospects for the employment of U.S. workers, the duties to be performed by the individual for whom the visa is sought, and the qualifications of that individual to fulfil those duties are usually included in this letter.
Additional documentation needed for the E-2 application usually covers the following points:
While the general outline for an E-2 application remains constant, there are always variations in the specifics. We should discuss the E-2 option in more detail if it appears to be a reasonable choice for you. Typically, an E-2 visa will be issued for a period of 5 years. An E-2 visa holder will usually be admitted into the US for 2 years, after which time the visa holder must either depart (and re-enter) the US, or apply for an extension of stay. E-2 visas can be renewed. There is no statutory limit on how long an individual can remain in E-2 status.

A unique experience. Our motor vessel Salagre, a former sander, is moored at the prettiest spot in Amsterdam in the Jordaan area. Surrounded by historic canal houses, with a view on the Westertoren from the outside deck, the Salagre offers a luxurious haven. Spacious, comfortable and cosy, with a unique wheelhouse seating area to enjoy the view and water activity on the Prinsengracht.
From streetlevel down a comfortable stair into the spacious wheelhouse which seats up to 8 persons. Windows all around, ideal for breakfast in the morning sun (if not outside) or romantic chilling in the evening amongst the historic canal houses. A lazy stair into the boat with two bedrooms, a spacious bathroom with combined shower/bath and toilet, a fully equipped kitchen and a spacious living area with dining table, sofa and chairs and a snug. The upper deck allows sitting or dining outside whilst enjoying the canal activities. Saturday and Monday morning are market days at the adjacent Noordermarkt: antiques, vintage, organic food and a real Amsterdam vibe to enjoy. Restaurants of good quality at walking distance.
The boat has two separate sleeping rooms: in the aft cabin there is an elevated king size bed and a build-in bed (140x200 cm) in the same room (also ideal for parents with young children). In the separate guest room is a king size bed as well. Both cosy and comfortable.
We had a wonderful stay with our two children, it was great to have space to spread out after being in a hotel. The neighborhood is beautiful with several good restaurants only steps away. We were lucky to have beautiful weather to be able to enjoy the deck to relax each evening, but the wheelhouse is also great for hanging out and enjoying the canal. The kids loved waving at the tour boats and the playground across the street. The boat itself was clean and comfortable. This was our first airbnb experience and we were a little nervous, but we had a great stay! Thank you to Joost and Anna for sharing your amazing home.
The "KroonPrins" was the perfect accommodation for Amsterdam and we can only recommend it. It's centrally located at a lovely spot at Prinsengracht, just next to the Noordermarket, restaurants, bars, shops etc. It was also very spacious with a huge terrace where you can relax and watch the tourist boats pass by through the canal.
This was our second stay on Joost's boat and we'll certainly be back. Great location and a fabulous boat!
Absolute must if visiting Amsterdam. The houseboat was in a great location, incredibly spacious, perfect temperature (central air/heat, perfectly warm in February), big clean bathroom, nice kitchen, and communication with Joost was quick and painless. Only have good things to say about this experience and the houseboat provided for us.
It only takes 2 minutes!

Experience Johannesburg South
The Johannesburg South Neighbourhood includes the suburbs of Bassonia, Glenvista, Lenasia, Oakdene, Winchester Hills and Mulbarton. Although the area is being developed fast, Johannesburg South still retains much of its natural beauty. With the endless hills disappearing into the horizon, and many exclusive wildlife estates, one might imagine being in a nature reserve. "The South", as it is most commonly referred to by the locals, is mainly divided into two main parts - the older part on the north side of the N12, and the newer part on the south of the highway. The people of "the South" are family-orientated and active.Find out more about Johannesburg South

According to CBS, Some Fat Guy is Leading The Golf Tournament
I guess everyone at CBS calling the final round of the (I'm sure) lowly rated Canadian Open, are perfectly sculpted, flawless pieces of woman meat. Or maybe they're just not fond of fat guys who are leading PGA Tour events.
Twice on Sunday, two different commentators- within 15 minutes of each other, pulled out their drivers, and took shots at portly Swedish golfer, Carl Pettersson.
First it was one of our favorite guys, David Feherty, who weighed in on the chubby swede, as co-hosts Bill Macatee and Ian Baker-Finch were predicting the final 6 holes between Pettersson, Dean Wilson, and Tim Clark to be "like a sprint to the finish."
Irish quipster Feherty didn't miss a beat, as CBS cameras panned in on Pettersson standing in between shots. "Well, he certainly doesn't look like a guy who could win a sprint."
Just moments later it was Macatee, who again, on cue from a camera shot of Pettersson in between shots, made a comment about how Pettersson didn't look like someone contending for a victory on the PGA Tour, but more like "a guy who was competing at the World Series of Poker."

Category: Vancouver
We have arrived!!!
So, we're here!!! We arrived on Thursday afternoon and it took 3 hours to claim our baggage and obtain our work and study permits. We couldn't check into our rented apartment till 31st, so we stayed overnight at a hotel in Downtown Vancouver.
Having been here for 4 days now, I don't feel elated. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to feel but the over riding feeling right now is tiredness. We're here, but we can't relax just yet. We have 2 months to find a school, a more permanent abode as well as getting paperwork together for our long awaited Invitation to Apply (for Permanent Residency) which came through a week before we were due to leave London.
I've wondered why I haven't been elated and I think it's because I feel as though I've always been here. We came last year for 2 months and perhaps it's because everything is still so familiar. I'm happy to be here, certainly, but not quite beaming. The boys remember everything they did last summer and have been looking forward to returning to many of the places we spent time.
But alongside the stress and tiredness, I have felt overwhelmingly grateful. Much of March was spent spending time with family and friends around the country and for most of that time, despite being emotionally drained I have felt full of gratitude to those who have journeyed with us.
I'm grateful for our "Manchester " family (who are actually scattered across the country now). We journeyed through uni, getting married, having children, the happiest of times and the darkest times of our lives and our marriage. The depth of friendships, the lessons learned and the support this lot have given us is truly unique and irreplaceable.
I'm grateful for our year and a half in London. Although we didn't anticipate it being for that long, I'm grateful that we got to live centrally in a wonderful, vibrant city. I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to see more of my "London" friends (who all but one still live in London) who may not be part of the minutia of my everyday but always make time to laugh together, drink together, eat together…they have known me since I was 11 years old…something still holds us together…I don't know anyone whose friendships have survived that long!
I'm grateful to the London Home Ed community and local activity groups who welcomed us, made friends with my children and I and blessed us with new adventures and new experiences, even though it was for a short time. It has been a joy to see the boys grow in many ways through the different courses and activities they did during their time in London.
I am grateful that I got to see family more frequently (well, we did live with my parents!!!) The boys' got to see more of their cousins too. I'm grateful that I got to see my brother more frequently. He is a primary school teacher and his school was near us in London, which means we bump into children/families he has taught. It has been such a pleasure to hear how wonderful Mr Tamayao is, how well respected he is by both parents and children, how nurturing he is and how gutted some parents have been when their child wasn't assigned to his class. So proud!
And I'm grateful to my parents who put up with us for the last year and half. They have blessed us in so many ways I cannot count. It will be strange and difficult not sharing life with them on a daily basis anymore. But thankfully they love Vancouver so hopefully visits won't just be to come and see us, but to enjoy the city and what it has to offer.
I am certain that had it not have been for the support, prayers and love of all of our family and friends, we couldn't have made the move. Sitting here now, writing this all, it's difficult to not ask myself, "What are we doing? We are giving up so much!" But since we have been here, the boys have taken to the city like a duck to water. On our first day, we went to the beach and Milo ran towards the sea shouting "Freedom!"
There is a bigger picture here for us in Vancouver and we will have adventures finding out what that looks like!
I'll leave it there for now. I'm tired but so so grateful.
P.S. However I am not grateful that it took me 20mins to make toast in this contraption and that I now have to pronounce Mocha, "Mow-ka"
I enjoyed the crazy-golf with my family last weekend. I liked playing with my cousin Noah in the playground too.
I am going to Canada in two days! I am excited about moving to Canada but I am going to miss my friends and family in Britain.
My feelings about moving
I'm very excited for second beach swimming pool but scared about earthquakes and sad that we're leaving. I hope we come back to England – it's my favorite country to see my family and my friends.
We're Moving To Vancouver, Canada!
It's been a long time coming but we finally have the right shapes of ink on the right pieces of paper and we are now finally able to go and live in Vancouver!
We have wanted to move to Canada for over 8 years now and visited Vancouver in 2009. Marylou had been to Toronto when she was 21 so we wanted to see what the other side of Canada looked like – and fell in love XD
Since then Marylou trained to be a qualified Counselor in Stockport, and bore Milo. Then a couple of years ago we realised nothing was keeping us in Manchester anymore so we decided to apply for Permanent Residency in Canada.
We thought we'd get Permanent Residency and be in the country within a few months so we sold up in Manchester and moved in with Marylou's parents, Greg and Fely, in London. We've lived in London for 1.5 years now and enjoyed our time here, but never felt at home because we wanted to be in Vancouver already!
So I found a Job with Chimp (https://chimp.net) in Vancouver. They liked me, I liked them and so they applied for a Work Permit. After 2.5 months, we finally got that Work Permit! That was 4 weeks ago, and we've since been sorting out all the logistics of trying to move across an ocean and a continent.
Yesterday we finally secured some accommodation for a couple of months while we figure out where we want to settle more permanently, and we booked our ONE WAY flights! So it's finally happening – we're moving to Vancouver!

Purchasing a brand-new dual mattress or updating your out-of-date one could be a difficult job. Opportunities are it's been rather a long time given that you last went cushion purchasing. You're most likely not also acquainted with the most recent cushion modern technology, which has actually progressed substantially over current years. Right here are 6 top pointers to think about before parting with your money.
Most of all, examine your dual mattress before purchasing. This is clearly essential as mattress differ in style, product and suppleness. Have a great lie down and see just how comfy you really feel. It's frequently a smart idea to make use of big program areas which have a series of mattress on display screen. As costs are normally less expensive online, after making your choice head house and order online to conserve cash.
Guarantee you get the right size of dual cushion. It could appear minor, yet it's more important compared to what you may assume. Lots of people annually go and spend thousands of extra pounds in a brand-new dual cushion, just to find it's the incorrect size for their bed framework. Dual cushions commonly are available in 4 sizes: 4 feet, 4 feet 6 inches, 5 feet, and 6 ft. Likewise, if you're buying a bed and mattress with each other, ensure you recognize the measurements of your area to make sure the bed framework will conveniently fit.
If you struggle with allergic reactions or bronchial asthma, shop meticulously. Some more affordable dual mattress could intensify your problem, which will no dual cause a poor evening's rest. If you do deal with an allergic reaction, it's suggested you purchase a hypo allergenic cushion, or mite immune design. You could likewise buy a cotton mattress guard which must help reduce the irritability.
When acquiring a mattress for 2 individuals to make use of, think of the distinctions in size and weight of you and your companion. Take into consideration buying a Miracoil, or solitary spring cushion style. The distinct spring system is made from one continual spring. This ranges from visit toe and equally disperses the weight of you and your companion. When one individual rolls over, it does not impact the other.
The ordinary individual could sweat approximately 2 pints each evening. If there are 2 individuals in the bed this clearly enhances. Make certain you purchase a cushion which permits excellent dissipation. This is particularly real throughout the summertime. Try going to https://www.sleepjunkie.org/find-your-best-mattress-the-top-10-and-worst-10-beds/ to know more about mattress.
Think about selecting a memory foam dual mattress. They are coming to be an increasing number of prominent because of the added convenience and leisure they offer. Initially established by NASA researchers for room goals, memory foam molds to the form of the body making certain a best evening's rest.

Breeder of third generation Napoleon cats, the pride of cat lovers, and the kings and queens of the cat world.
My husband and I have two types of charities that we will always support: animals and veterans. In appreciation for the good fortune we've had in life, we wish to pay it back by giving to animals and veterans. Please see how Tiny Lions Napoleons shows our support for shelter animals and our military. We hope this inspires you to remember our veterans and our furry friends in their time of need.
You should never be intimidated by people who condemn you for buying a breed pet, but don't forget this world's shelter animals, either. These pets are wonderful creatures that weren't given a chance to make someone happy. Unfortunately, many of the animals in a shelter were surrendered by someone who couldn't or didn't want to take care of them anymore. The best way to support these amazing creatures is to adopt one. They need homes.
My husband and I greatly respect this country's military servicemen and women, and our veterans. We would like to show our appreciation for their service by offering a military discount on our kittens. With a valid military ID, you will receive a $100 discount on a standard Napoleon (minuet), or a $50 discount on a nonstandard Napoleon (minuet). Please mention that you are an active serviceman or woman, or a veteran when you contact us with your interest in one of our cats.

After a VERY hectic holiday of weddings and Christmas and a trip to Scotland, I'm back off to uni. But I couldn't leave without going for lunch at my favourite deli.
The t-shirt dress is always a good choice when your plans involve eating; even after my huge goats cheese salad and Italian pastry my food baby was completely hidden. This dress even did the trick on Christmas Day which is no mean feat. This outfit has become one of favourites over the holiday; it's super casual and comfy but the boots add a little extra glam (honestly these boots are incredible, people stop me in the street to compliment them, thank you Topshop gods). It's also very warm because of this insanely puffy Urban Outfitters coat and Topshop Hat. This coat kept me toasty in Scotland, there is nothing it can't do. Obviously I can't forget the mittens, I mean look at them. Not only are they sassy af but they are fleece lined, FLEECE. My hands have never felt warmer. Plus they add some much needed colour to this outfit. My little fluffy bag was a Christmas prezzie from my sis and now sis-in-law (yay) and it couldn't be cuter. Just about fits my ridiculously huge pom-pom keyring.
Makeup-wise I kept this look pretty simple because a) it was only a casual lunch and b) I didn't get up in time to do the full routine (mostly b). My skin and eyebrows were the same as in the Christmas Shopping and Cocktails Post except I used Born This Way foundation by Too Faced, the Porefessional primer by Benefit, MAC mineralize skin finish in starscapade to highlight and I think I used a blush from the Too Face Grand Hotel Cafe palette. I didn't do much on the eyes, just a nude shimmery shadow from the Grand Hotel Cafe palette (don't remember which one exactly) and layered on the They're Real Mascara by Benefit. To add some extra colour I decided to go for a red lip; I used the Kylie Lip Kit in Kristen here. This is probably my favourite red lipstick of all time. There's something about it that's slightly different to all my other red lipsticks, can't quite put my finger on what it is though.
I loved this outfit, the perfect comfy and casual but still pretty outfit. Hope you all like it too!

Change in selection criteria on Dairy Scheme an opportunity for Tipp farmers
There is an opportunity for Tipp farmers looking for a dairy upgrading grant - McCormack says change in Selection Criteria and underspend on Dairy Equipment Scheme presents favourable application opportunity
Given the present underspend on the Dairy Equipment Scheme an opportunity is being presented for dairy farmers who intend to upgrade their dairy facilities in the next two years to apply and get approval for a 40% grant for dairy equipment, according to Pat McCormack, Deputy President and Chairman of ICMSA's Dairy Committee "With the pressures on dairy farmers at the present time in terms of cashflow and debt, it's likely that upgrading facilities may have been pushed down the list of priorities. But we'd like to remind farmers that successful applicants have two years to complete the specified works under the scheme so applying now allows the farmer until Spring 2015 to complete the investmentâ€, said Mr McCormack.
"Many farmers have indicated their desire to upgrade their facilities but have been put off the Dairy Equipment scheme due to the use of selection criteria to determine whether a farmer is successful or not. ICMSA has been informed by the Department of Agriculture, Food and Marine that, as of now, selection criteria are unlikely to be applied given the number of applicants and that there is currently approximately €1m available from the last tranche. This underspend is not surprising given the income and other pressures on farmers over the last year and it does provide an opportunity for farmers to secure a grant for dairy investment. We'd advise all farmers considering such work to consider the Dairy Equipment Scheme. The Department should also review the items eligible for investment under the scheme in order to make the scheme more relevant to dairy farmersâ€, continued Mr. McCormack.
In addition, and for existing approvals, Mr. McCormack said that the two year period for completion of works should be extended where required by the applicant. "Farmers in good faith expected to complete the work within the two-year period but with the substantial reduction in farm incomes and ongoing costs due to the atrocious weather conditions, farmers simply have not been able to financially complete the investment. The Department needs to recognise these very genuine cases and immediately extend the period to complete these works due to the exceptional circumstances that faced farmers over the last year†concluded the Deputy President.

6 Things to Do When Home Possession is Delayed
The process associated with buying a home is no joke. Many challenges come up when you're on the hunt for an ideal home, including arranging finances and home loan. And if even after putting your hard-earned money, you fail to receive the possession of your property on time, you're not only left without the roof over your head but ends up losing your savings or money as well. Which may be in the form of home loan EMIs or costs for a rented accommodation.
Why is Home Possession Delayed?
The ongoing delay in the home possession is one of the worst nightmares of a buyer. This is a common scenario these days and it occurs mainly due to:
- Pending approvals from the municipality.
- The builder is facing working capital crunch because of insufficient funds or the bank has denied for funding the project.
Only the developers should not be blamed for the delay in home possession. Several times, projects may stall due to land acquisition debacles. Projects need to be approved by several government authorities and procuring clearances is a long-drawn process.
Whatever the reason might be, this delay makes it difficult to plan for the future and increases other costs. Therefore, it is important to combat with this raging issue with several solutions. But, before that, you must know some warning signs to avoid the risk of getting locked in a delayed home possession.
Warning Signs to Avoid Any Risk
You'll certainly receive the possession on time if the project holds necessary approvals along with the funding from a bank. There are many projects that boast of 100% funding from foreign private equities and other investors. This means there are lesser chances of delays because of lack of funds. But, if that's not the scenario, you must:
- Ask for a copy of a duly stamped copy of the project's drawings. In the case of any doubt, it is advisable to conduct your purchase with the attorney.
- You can also ask for a construction schedule from a builder.
- Developer should provide construction progress reports to claim construction linked property payments. But, if the developer is not claiming the payment within the stipulated time, it's a warning that the project is going off the schedule.
With that said, you need to do a groundwork before you take any action. Keep all the evidence and records safe such as booking papers, receipts, brochures and any signed agreement between two parties. It is suggested to confront buyer with any questions and concerns before resorting to any legal action. If there are people having grievances on the same project, then try to approach the developer as a group. But, if no resolution comes through, it is advisable to take a legal action.
Seek a Compensation
If the builder delays the possession beyond the stipulated time, you have the right to ask a compensation from the builder. In addition, you should make sure that before signing the agreement, such clause governing compensation is written in the agreement.
Legal Remedies
If the builder is still refraining to give you compensation, then it's the right time to send a legal notice to the builder, claiming the refund of the amounts paid along with interest and any other damages. You can also file a consumer complaint on the grounds of deficiency in service as defined under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 against the builder. You're required to file a written complaint in the consumer dispute redressal forum set up under the act. This case can be filed at three different levels: district, state and national, depending on the value of a property or the amount of damage suffered.
If there is any fraud involved like the builder misrepresented the buyer to sell any flat, civil and criminal proceedings can be initiated in such cases.
Claim Your Share
If the builder assured you that you'll get the possession of your flat within the stipulated time-frame, you can claim the money spent to buy alternative accommodation. But, this is only applicable if you're a first time home buyer. You are also free to claim the interest on the payment that has been made till date.
Claim for Indirect Losses
You need to have strong proof in order to claim your indirect losses. You're only liable to claim for the loss you've suffered if you are able to prove it with a strong evidence. It is required so that you can fight the case against the builder or developer in consumer court.
Additional Provisions
There are few additional provisions which you as a buyer should be aware of. For instance, under the Domestic Building Contracts Act 1955, the builder has to provide the warranties as follows:
- Construction work would be completed within the given time period.
- Work will be carried out in a legal manner with reasonable care.
- Only high-quality materials will be used by the builder.
- Work progress will be carried out in accordance with plan and specifications mentioned in the contract.
So, you must have a formal written contract which consists of information like start and completion date, details of progress payment, the specification for your new home. Make sure you read your contract and fully understand its contents. Most importantly, check the builder's financial credibility.
Barnala Developers is a reliable and prominent builder known for creating and delivering homes on time.

That's Hollywood for ya - no more original ideas left. They had to steal all Canadian actors, now they're stealing our movies too. And some IMDB reviews are calling it 'fresh and original'. *sigh*

5 votesIt's always very disappointing when a film that has potential for greatness throws all that potential out the window, and that is precisely what happens in 21, a film that could've been nail-biting and intense, perhaps even a successful coming-of-age tale, and ends up not working as any of those things.

British Gas, has announced that it will be raising electricity prices by 12.5% as of 15 September 2017 (gas is so far, unaffected). It means that customers on a standard tariff will face an increase of £76 on the average annual dual fuel bill, bringing it to £1,120. It adds yet more financial pressure to cash-strapped households – and all just a few months before Christmas.
The rise will affect 3.1 million people, with British Gas putting the blame on transmission and distribution costs, as well as the cost of some government policies, such as renewables and the smart meter initiative.
It's a blow to loyal British Gas customers, who had so far escaped the hike in energy prices It's the first price rise by British Gas since November 2013 – but that's unlikely to make customers feel any better. And because Sainsbury's Energy is a white label British Gas brand, any of their customers may also be affected.
The other 'big six' suppliers have already subjected customers to bigger bills. EDF Energy , was the first of the major players to announce increases way back in December 2016, they were swiftly followed by Npower in February 2017.
British Gas, had previously said that it would freeze energy prices until August – a hint that customers could expect post summer increases, which has now come to fruition. However, Britain's biggest energy supplier, has vowed to protect its most vulnerable customers eligible for the government's Warm home discount scheme, by crediting them with the £76 increase.
Peter Earl
Head of Energy
"After British Gas inadvertently let slip that a price hike was on the horizon, the inevitable has been confirmed. As the final member of the Big Six completes the 'full house' of price rises, the big loser is, once again, the hard-pressed British consumer. This will be a big disappointment to British Gas customers who would have been relieved to be with the only Big Six provider not to hike prices this year. Loyalty in the energy market does not pay. It's an indication of a dysfunctional market that savvy customers willing to take action could save over £290 simply by switching provider."
It's been proven time and again that switching energy supplier is an easy way to save money on your energy bills. And if you think that switching's complicated, and simply too much hassle – then think again, because it's not. In fact, the majority of switches happen within 17 days and with the Energy switch guarantee, you can be confident you won't be messed around or end up sitting in the dark.
So, if you're fed up of constantly reading about energy price hikes, then do something about it and use our energy comparison service – what are you waiting for?

Video Games Live Malaysia 2012
Istana Budaya, Kuala Lumpur.
27 May 2012.
It was a much anticipated day for gamers and music lovers alike. True enough, video game music is underappreciated simply because it usually appeals only to serious gamers, and those who don't really play games as much will find it hard to understand what's the fuss all about with it. Video Games Live, I believe, intends to show and to prove to the world that video games music is not just bleeps and bloops after all.
Not often can you enjoy the music from the games you love performed live by a symphony orchestra. The realisation of the concert series itself was largely made possible by Tommy Tallarico and Jack Wall, two highly experienced video game composers. I've already linked its Wikipedia page, so if you're really interested to know more just click on the greened phrase somewhere up there, okay?
For this year's edition, the event was held at the Istana Budaya (the Palace of Cuture) in KL, which is generally the main venue for theaters and classical concerts.
For me, the concert was a treat from my sister…so, a very huge thank you to Nieks who is without even the slightest of doubts my best-est sister ever! Quelle joie! 😀
On a technical note the tix that all eight of us bought were the cheapest ones, at RM98 per ticket, as you can see below. Haha. Beggars can't be choosers, right? It didn't matter anyway, it was good enough for me.
To relate the price of the tickets with the seating, we were placed at the uppermost circle, from which the stage looked like this:
It wasn't even half bad, as a matter of fact. 😆
Bon. For the setlist the songs/themes performed that night, see here. (perhaps not exactly the complete list, I dunno)
There were themes from Castlevania, Assassin's Creed 2, Metroid, Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy, etc. and all of them were good. Very good, actually. But a few that absolutely touched me were:
- The Pokémon Medley, due to the fact that I grew up with Pokémon. Duh, what else?;
- Snake Eater, the opening theme from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, because it's the only one of the series that I played with heart and replayed over and over again to gain achievements, special items, etc. The performance was accompanied by the song writer Norihiko Hibino himself with his saxophone.
- Tetris Theme/Korobeiniki (an operatic version featuring Laura Intravia), I just loved it. It's one of my all-time favourite themes since God knows when.
- Jonathan Coulton's Still Alive, the closing song, just because it was awesome. C'est tout.
In conclusion, it was such a fantastic night for me, personally. There's probably no better combination than music plus video game. That's all I can say. Thanks, again, to NiBokYi who made it possible for me to experience VGL.
Limesong of the Day: Snake Eater!
